Abstract: | Experimental results are presented for rotating Couette flows with and without circumferential pressure gradients between a rotating disk and a stationary fluid chamber. The spinning disk and the top of the C-shaped fluid chamber are separated by a μ-scale gap that forms the fluid chamber passage with inner and outer radii of 1.19 and 2.38 mm, respectively. Ranges of experimental conditions are presented to demonstrate the fluid dynamics of the test arrangement, and for determination of fluid viscosity, and gas slip flow accommodation coefficients. As such, the test arrangement provides means to determine such fluid and flow properties using microliter sample sizes, with relatively low magnitudes of experimental uncertainty. |
